Song from the 2013 CD / Book "C3:Motion Study." Video starring the 2013 Live C3 line-up: Paul O'Rear, Jaxie Binder, Stephen Thompson, and Steve Ball.
My mom and sister (Julie) helped make the voodoo dolls, and Sofie and I worked on the stop motion video as a way to learn about animation. The whole bedroom theme was also a blast and formed a new sort of bond between these band mates. The paintings were also a labor-intensive labor of many hours of love, and I hope they add some new level of understanding to the (at least double) layers of the lyrics.

Two Minus One
brick and pillow mars and venus
silk and paper sheets between us
hello kitty smart and pretty
midwest ocean sand in lotion
one red leaf in the ocean
two red lips without motion
me soft speaking misspoken
you love making past passion
you glass slipper fast fashion
me rust zipper left open
we lost promises broken
hallelujah glad I knew you
never know dear what went through you
goodbye kitten script unwritten
frozen water diamond daughter
a ring in the rocket
a lock on the locket
a stick in the socket
a prick in the pocket
a bend in river
a punch in the liver
a shock for the doctor
hallelujah glad I knew you
hallelujah sin stuck to you
hallelujah little Buddha
hallelujah a pin pokes through you
goodbye kitty hello city
worlds between us
mars and venus
